Six important Maoist cadres including two 18-year-old females of Andhra-Odisha Special Zonal Committee surrendered before the State police. They were produced before the media by Director General of Police D. Gautam Sawang. The six including two from Visakhapatnam and four from Chattisgarh were involved in 127 offences including 17 murders over the past one and a half decades. Mr. Sawang said that the main reasons for the cadres to quit CPI (Maoist) party was dwindling support from the tribal population, lack of recruitment from tribals and discrimination of tribal cadres by top leadership among others.More Related News
